Researchers have identified the mitochondrial calcium uniporter as a critical protein in the strengthening of synaptic ...

Scientists have discovered a remarkable new form of symbiosis — a bacterium that lives inside a single-celled organism (a ...

This is an important and solid study that examines the role of TFAM, a protein that helps maintain mtDNA, in mtDNA mutator mice. The authors have demonstrated that TFAM's counteractive role in mtDNA ...

Virginia Tech neuroscientists have uncovered a mitochondrial process that supports the brain cells critical for learning, ...

The new research reveals a novel mechanism for signal transmission in brain cells and helps answer an open question in neuroscience about how intracellular signals travel over long distances in ...

Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) is actively removed during spermatogenesis in a conserved process that enforces the uniparental ...

Researchers have identified a unique mitochondrial process in CA2 neurons that supports learning, memory, and social ...

New research details the subcellular structures in neurons that enable signals to be transmitted from where they are received at specific sites on dendrites to the decision-making cell body located ...
